Hakutsuru Sake (白鶴酒) is the first wine I have tried that was served hot. yet, after my first gulp, I could totally taste the reason, because it was served hot, it allowed the alcohol to work to give it a strong taste giving an illusion of a higher alcohol percentage. I wasn't a very big fan of this drink, yes, indeed it tasted quite good, but it was too strong, a few small cups was more than enough for me.
